NOTE: EACH COPY OF ASSYRIA COMES WITH A SEPARATE BAG OF 8 WOODEN REPLACEMENT TOKENS.

The aim of Assyria is to be the player with the most victory points (VP) at game's end. You gain points primarily by building huts and ziggurats, making offerings, and increasing your influence. Each round, players bid for turn order, expand on the map, and take various actions. After the third and sixth rounds, a flood will occur, wiping away everything along the two rivers. After the final flood, the player with the most points wins.

This second edition of Assyria is a redeveloped and redesigned edition of the 2009 release Assyria.

James ★★★★★

Played this three times already and the area control tension keeps every round interesting. The included bag of 8 wooden replacement tokens is a nice touch since the cardboard ones would've worn out fast. Fighting over ziggurats has never been this fun.

Zoe ★★★★★

The wooden replacement tokens are such a thoughtful addition, way better than the flimsy cardboard ones in most games. Played a full session with four people and the scoring stayed tense right to the last round.

Amelia U. ★★★★★

The separate bag with 8 wooden replacement tokens is such a thoughtful touch—we lost one during our second session and had a spare ready in seconds. Setup took us about ten minutes and the victory point scoring kept everyone engaged right to the final turn.
